Chinese Dumplings/Jaozi
- 1 (16 ounce) package dumpling wrappers
- 1 lb ground pork
- 2 cups Chinese cabbage
- 14 cup onion
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons sesame seed oil
- 12 teaspoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons chicken soup base
- Finely dice cabbage and onions.
- Mix all the filling ingredients together except the cabbage, add cabbage only when youre about to wrap it.
- Fill and fold wrappers in half.
- Pinch sides to ensure they won't break open during cooking.
- Put enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan, layer the jiao zi, and then brown the bottom (should take about 1 minute or until the bottom of the jiao zi is brown with highest heat),
- Add one tablespoon of water and cover the pan quickly to let the jiao zi be cooked by the steam.
- Turn the stove to medium until they are cooked (roughly two or three minutes at least).
- If youre not sure if theyre cooked, taste one and see.
- Enjoy :-).
